Teddy

Look, see, Teddy really does exist. I haven't written much about Teddy because frankly I just haven't been able to get any photos of him. But lately, he has let me hold him a few times - if I'm sly and pick him up without him realizing I'm picking him up. Like if he's entranced in a grooming session with Fernando and is on the verge of falling asleep. I can scoop him up slowly and cradle him in my hands. He enjoys being stroked and scratched on his head... until he remembers that he's supposed to be afraid. Then he jumps up and runs for cover. He'll come around. Some little fellas are just cautious that way.

Here he is debating whether it's safe to get closer to me in order to join Tori and Nando in the comfy green donut. Eventually, he did... but only when I was pretending not to notice.
